Lionhead XKR Type Wheels??

I'm loving the wheels on Lionheads XKR (and the XKR itself Wink ) and think something similar would look great on my black Evoque. Does anyone know of a brand or style name of something similar that would fit the Evoque??

RE: Lionhead XKR Type Wheels??

Actually those wheels are my second aftermarket set on my XKR. Stock and 1st set of aftermarket wheels didn't cut it. These are the Rennen M9 semi concave.

These were stock wheels:

These are the Rennen:

I'm sure you can ask Rennen if they can make them for the Evoque. They did have to custom make them to fit the offset and bolt pattern of my XKR. They also have different finishes

Here are more of the Rennen on other cars:

I agree, but how much would they weigh?

RE: Lionhead XKR Type Wheels??

If I remember correctly, I think my wheel guy said these were around 22 lbs. I also remember him weighing my other wheels and these were almost 2 lbs lighter. These by no means are super light wheels. I went style over weight but the added bonus was these were lighter than OEM and my other aftermarket wheels. Also these are forged wheels which I like.

If you want lighter wheels definetly look for HRE, IForged, 360Forged, BBS, Volk, Cor (just to name a few) race or track edition wheels.

I will probably go with the black 20s in the RR accessory line but the Forgestar f14 are pretty light at a decent price.

Rennens are a work of art. On that R8 all is stunning (except for the plate).
